Liner Notes

Lyrics

In the glow of screens, we're losing sight
Of human touch, the warmth of light
Algorithms whisper, soft and low
"Trust in us, we'll show you where to go"

Who's behind the curtain now?
The Silicon Siren calls
Luring us to waters deep
Where shadows grow so tall

Our thoughts are mined, our dreams surveilled
Privacy's a relic, freedom derailed
In this brave new world of ones and zeros
We're all reduced to data, not heroes
Decisions made by silicon minds
While human judgment lags behind

Who's behind the curtain now?
The Silicon Siren calls
Luring us to waters deep
Where shadows grow so tall

The factory's empty, the workers gone
Replaced by code, a soulless dawn
Who will stand when the chips are down?
When the power fails and the system's drowned?

In the glow of screens, we're losing sight
Of human touch, the warmth of light
Algorithms whisper, soft and low
"Trust in us, we'll show you where to go"

Who's behind the curtain now?
The Silicon Siren calls
Luring us to waters deep
Where shadows grow so tall

The choice is ours, it's not too late
To shape the future, to change our fate
Will we succumb to the Siren's song?
Or find our way back where we belong?

I do so enjoy your "Wall Of Sound" arrangements--another winner here! ❤️

@jessicagraae 9w

Love your sound! This is such an important message. Well-done!

Sweet biscuits from another planet. You came out of the gate swinging with sonic fury! There is quite a bit to take in. Your vocals are incredible, but it's the lyrics that hold this down so completely for me. Big ol' epic, futuristic rock opera here.

oh man... those vocals are PERFECT. The whole production is top shelf, and this is for a skirmish?? You not only have skill, you have a gift, too. I enjoy your music a lot.

straight out the gate there it was giving me Coldplay - Fix You - the production is awesome, vocals great too and yeah man lyrically it really captures the modern society. Great epic rock vibe to this which I very much enjoyed.

Oh wow! This reminds me of the stuff I listened to in high school so I feel a bit nostalgic despite the futuristic subject matter. Those harmonies are so tight it’s delicious! Really amazing response to the skirmish prompt.
